Good evening Grand View parents.
Due to record COVID spikes in our county Grand View School is canceling this week's activities that involve campus visitors effective tonight. The spelling bee will be tomorrow as planned, but again no outside visitors.
Additionally, the campus will be closed on January 13 and 14, Students will move to Asynchronous Virtual Learning for Thursday and Friday lessons.
These decisions were made after careful consultation with Cherokee Nation Public Health. They report new COVID cases today at almost 3x the rate of last fall's highest single day total. They estimate the highest number of new cases is still 7-14 days away.
More details about the Asynchronous Virtual Learning days will be available by mid-week.
Thank you for again adapting to keep Grand View students and staff safe.
We are excited to announce that Grand View School will be giving books to all students today. These books are a gift provided by grant funding. Please enjoy them with your children.
